Answer:

Alleles cause the production of a certain type of protein.

Explanation:

Genes mutate and can get two or more different or opposite forms, every form of such gene is known as an allele.

An allele is one of the common causes for deciding the trait or character of an individual because it causes the production of a certain type of protein.

Thus, the correct answer would be Alleles cause the production of a certain type of protein.

What is one byproduct of slash-and-burn clearing of the rain forest that is harming the atmosphere?
morpeh [17]

It has been estimated that ‘slash and burn’ agriculture is used by up to 500 million people worldwide. The term describes the practice of cutting and/or burning of natural vegetation for conversion into agricultural fields. Besides the disastrous implications for forest ecosystems, the practice can impact the atmosphere in two main ways if burning is implemented. Firstly by causing air pollution from the smoke, and secondly by increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, which is a greenhouse gas and a driver of climate change. Living trees also remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis, and the process of ‘slash and burn’ effectively removes their carbon capturing contributions to ameliorating climate change.

The axon: carries information toward other neurons. forms connections with other neurons. receives signals sent from other neuro
Alik [6]

Answer:

Explanation

The Axon or nerve fibre is a long, thin projection of the neuron or nerve cells that sends signals in the form of electrical impulses from the cell body (soma) to the synaptic terminals. The axons are of two types: myelinated and unmyelinated. The unmyelinated axons lack myelin sheaths which make the transmission of electrical impulses slower while the myelinated axons transmit electrical impulses faster.
